The guidance and purpose
• To endorse the recommendation made by a smaller group of
CoGs re indicator selection for external audit
Background:
• The Quality Account forms one half of CNWL’s Annual Report

and stand up to data quality testing

our consultation process, sign-off

external audit/assurance and a third is to be selected by our
Council of Governors
Indicators for Quality Account audit
• 2 x National indicators
– CPA 7-day follow up
– CRT Gate-keeping
• 1 x locally selected indicator – ‘what can we choose from?’
- must be auditable back to source information for
verification/validating
- patient survey indicators therefore n/a
- where possible include the whole trust
• Suggestions:
– “Inpatients receive a nursing physical health assessment after
admission”
– “Readmission rates”
Indicator selection
• All Council of Governors were invited to attend a mini
meeting (following the main Quality Account Priority
